If you care about your own soul not going to hell and getting out from under the wrath of God and being saved for everlasting joy and his all satisfying presence,

you cannot be indifferent to the Word that He has inspired to get you there. Nobody gets to heaven without the

Word of God, either preached or read or somehow communicated to them. What does it mean for truth

to be absolute in a world of relativism?

In this episode of Light and Truth, John Piper examines key biblical passages to reveal the Bible's unique claim to truth and how it calls Christians to stand firm.

This seminar was originally delivered

at Bethlehem Baptist Church in September 2001.

If it is true, that is if the Bible is true,

the message of the Bible is the only message of eternal life.

I began here. All the gods of the peoples

are idols. Psalm 96.5. John 14. 6. I'm the way, the truth in the life. Nobody comes to the

Father but through me. John 6.67, You do not want to go away also, do you?

Simon Peter said, Lord, to whom should we go?

You have the words of eternal life.

Acts 4.12.

There is salvation in no one else,

for there is no other name under heaven

that has been given among men by which we must be saved.

John 842,

If God were your father, you would love me, for I proceeded forth and have come from God.

1. John 2.23, whoever denies the son does not have the father.

Just let that sink in.
